About
Remember when when we were younger and cookie dipping signified Oreos in milk? Maybe you moved on to biscotti and coffee as you got older. Who knows, perhaps you enjoy a madeleine in your Earl Grey tea. The point is, there’s something really satisfying enjoyable about dunking something sweet and crunchy into something hot and liquid. But what makes a good immersing item? It definitely has to hold up post-submersion, so the initial crunch factor is key. It should have its own individual flavors that won’t cause interference, making subtlety and cohesiveness are important. And size is important too. Something small enough to fit the round of a glass or mug, but sizeable enough to provide at least two chomps. We found a cookie that has all three. Well maybe two and a half. It has body, and the flavors are delicate. But the size. Well, you can get at least two bites out of it, but will you be able to hold yourself back from swallowing it whole? That we cannot guarantee.

I believe there is a typo in step 3 of this recipe (Hazelnut Tea Cookies).
In a larger bowl, use a mixer to beat sugar until fluffy and creamy.
You should be beating the butter; not the sugar.
